On self-adapting recommendations of curricula for an individual learning experience

Abstract

We propose ideas for the development of TEL systems which allow for an automatic, dynamic and self-adapting recommendation of curricula from a wide set of available content for an individual user and with regard to a specific purpose. We argue that recommender systems in the prevalent occurrence cannot be used directly in TEL systems, but must be extended by process-related techniques for continuous optimization and adaptation of the generated curriculum. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.
